[0002] The new energy vehicle industry is booming, but poor driving range remains a major problem. One key solution is to use more lightweight metals and non-metals in the vehicle body, such as aluminum alloys, magnesium alloys, and reinforced plastics, to reduce energy consumption. Self-piercing riveting, an advanced cold-joining technology, offers a shorter production cycle and simpler process compared to traditional welding and screw / nut connections. It is now widely used for joining lightweight metals and non-metals in automotive bodies.
[0003] However, currently, if the rivets in self-piercing riveting cannot completely penetrate all the plates, the connection strength of the plates will be insufficient, and there is a risk of loosening during subsequent use. Furthermore, it is difficult to detect and assess when the rivets penetrate the plates, and destructive testing is usually required to find out, which affects the efficiency of self-piercing riveting and results in high testing costs.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a self-piercing riveting device, a control method for the self-piercing riveting device, and related equipment to at least partially solve the problems existing in the prior art. Summary of the Invention

The flange abuts against the plate, ensuring that the rivet completely penetrates all the plates while the connection with the plate is tight, preventing the rivet from coming out of the plate, reducing the risk of loosening of the plate during subsequent use, and the riveting status of the rivet can be detected without destructive testing, reducing testing costs and improving the efficiency of self-piercing riveting.

[0050] To better understand the above technical solutions, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the embodiments of this application and the specific features in the embodiments are detailed descriptions of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application, rather than limitations on the technical solutions of this application. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments of this application and the technical features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0051] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a self-piercing riveting device is provided according to a first aspect of the present application, comprising: a first stamping part 110 for pushing a rivet 300 through a plate 200; a second stamping part 120 for abutting against the plate 200; and a pressure sensor 130 connected to the first stamping part 110 for detecting the pressure of the first stamping part 110; wherein, when the pressure sensor 130 detects a sudden change in the pressure of the first stamping part 110, the second stamping part 120 stamps the tip of the rivet 300 to form a flange at the tip of the rivet 300.
[0052] It is understood that the self-piercing riveting device provided in this application embodiment is provided with a first stamping part 110, a second stamping part 120, and a pressure sensor 130. The first stamping part 110 is used to push the tail of the rivet 300 to apply pressure to the rivet 300 so that the rivet 300 penetrates into the multilayer sheet 200. The pressure sensor 130 detects the pressure information applied to the rivet 300 by the first stamping part 110 in real time. When a sudden change in pressure is detected in the first stamping part 110, it indicates that the rivet 300 has penetrated all the sheets 200. At this time, the second stamping part 120 applies pressure to the tip of the rivet 300, so that the tip of the rivet 300 that penetrates the plate 200 is deformed by force to form a flange. The flange abuts against the plate 200, ensuring that the rivet 300 completely penetrates the entire plate 200 while the connection with the plate 200 is tight, preventing the rivet 300 from coming out of the plate 200, reducing the risk of the plate 200 loosening during subsequent use, and the riveting status of the rivet 300 can be detected without destructive testing, reducing testing costs and improving the efficiency of self-piercing riveting.
[0053] Understandably, the second stamping part 120 provides support for the sheet metal 200, and there should be a gap between the corresponding positions of the second stamping part 120 and the rivet 300 to ensure that a sudden pressure change occurs when the rivet 300 penetrates all the sheet metal 200, so as to accurately monitor the penetration status of the rivet 300. When the second stamping part 120 applies pressure to the tip of the rivet 300, the gap can be sealed to ensure that the end of the second stamping part 120 and the tip of the rivet 300 in contact is flat, so that the second stamping part 120 applies pressure to the tip of the rivet 300.
[0054] In some examples, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the second stamping part 120 includes: a support plate 121 for supporting the plate 200, the support plate 121 having a connecting hole 124; a support rod 122 disposed in the connecting hole 124, the support rod 122 and the support plate 121 being at the same height on the side near the first stamping part 110, an annular groove being formed between the hole walls of the support hole and the connecting hole 124, the rivet 300 being located in the annular groove when the rivet 300 penetrates the plate 200; and a sleeve 123 sleeved on the support rod 122, located between the support rod 122 and the hole wall of the connecting hole 124.
[0055] Understandably, the second stamping section 120 is provided with a support plate 121, a support rod 122, and a sleeve 123. The support plate 121 supports the plate 200. A connecting hole 124 is provided at the position corresponding to the rivet 300. The connecting hole 124 is a through hole. The support rod 122 is disposed in the connecting hole 124. The height of the support rod 122 is the same as the height of the side of the support plate 121 near the first stamping part 110, so that the support rod 122 and the end of the support plate 121 near the first stamping part 110 are flush, so that the support rod 122 provides support for the plate 200. The outer diameter of the support rod 122 is smaller than the inner diameter of the connecting hole 124, so that an annular groove is formed between the support rod 122 and the hole wall of the connecting hole 124. The first stamping part 110 stamps the rivet 300. When the rivet 300 penetrates the entire plate 200, the tip of the rivet 300 is located in the annular groove, so that the pressure sensor 130 detects the sudden change in pressure applied by the first stamping part 110. The riveting status of the rivet 300 can be detected without destructive testing, reducing the detection cost. The sleeve 123 is fitted onto the support rod 122 and can move along the axial direction of the support rod 122. The sleeve 123 is located between the support rod 122 and the wall of the connecting hole 124, that is, the sleeve 123 is located in the annular groove. When the second stamping part 120 is not applying pressure, the height of the sleeve 123 is lower than the height of the support rod 122 to leave space for the rivet 300. When it is detected that the tip of the rivet 300 has completely penetrated the plate 200 and is located in the annular groove, the sleeve 123 slides upward to apply pressure to the tip of the rivet 300, causing the tip of the rivet 300 to deform and form a flange. The flange abuts against the plate 200, ensuring that the rivet 300 completely penetrates the entire plate 200 while maintaining a tight connection with the plate 200, preventing the rivet 300 from coming out of the plate 200 and reducing the risk of loosening of the plate 200 during subsequent use.
[0056] In some examples, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the sleeve 123 has a groove 126 on the side away from the first stamping part 110; the support rod 122 has a protrusion 125 on the side away from the first stamping part 110, and the protrusion 125 is inserted into the groove 126; wherein, the groove depth of the groove 126 is greater than the length of the protrusion 125.
[0057] Understandably, a groove 126 is provided on the side of the sleeve 123 away from the first stamping part 110, with the opening of the groove 126 facing downwards. A protrusion 125 is provided on the side of the support rod 122 away from the first stamping part 110. When the sleeve 123 is fitted onto the support rod 122, the protrusion 125 is located within the groove 126. Furthermore, the depth of the groove 126 is greater than the length of the protrusion 125. With this arrangement, when the second stamping part 120 is not applying pressure, the protrusion 125 abuts against the bottom of the groove 126, causing the support rod 122 to protrude beyond the sleeve 123. That is, the height of the support rod 122 is flush with the height of the support plate 121, and the height of the sleeve 123 is lower than the height of the support rod 122. Space is left in the annular groove so that the tip of the rivet 300 penetrates the entire plate 200 and is located within the annular groove. At this time, an upward thrust is applied to the sleeve 123, and the protrusion 125 slides from the bottom of the groove 126 towards the opening, thereby causing the sleeve 123 to move towards the plate 200. The sleeve 123 applies pressure to the tip of the rivet 300, causing the tip of the rivet 300 to deform and form a flange. The flange abuts against the plate 200, ensuring a tight connection between the rivet 300 and the plate 200 and preventing the rivet 300 from coming out of the plate 200. By setting the groove 126 and the protrusion 125, the movement of the sleeve 123 is limited to the axial direction of the support rod 122, and the travel of the sleeve 123 relative to the support rod 122 is limited, ensuring the stability of the pressure applied by the sleeve 123 to the tip of the rivet 300.
[0058] In some examples, the self-piercing riveting device further includes: a first driving member connected to the first stamping part 110 for driving the first stamping part 110 to stamp the rivet 300; and a second driving member connected to one end of the sleeve 123 where the groove 126 is provided for driving the sleeve 123 to move toward the support plate 121.
[0059] Understandably, the self-piercing riveting device also includes a first driving member and a second driving member. The first driving member is connected to the first stamping part 110 and provides thrust to the first stamping part 110, causing it to push the rivet 300 to rivet the plate 200. The second driving member is connected to the end of the sleeve 123 where the groove 126 is located. The second driving member provides thrust to the sleeve 123, causing it to move closer to the support plate 121, thereby applying pressure to the tip of the rivet 300 and causing the tip of the rivet 300 to form a flange. This reduces human intervention and increases the degree of automation.
[0060] In some examples, the self-piercing riveting device further includes: a first displacement sensor 140 connected to the side wall of the first stamping part 110; and a second displacement sensor 150 connected to the side wall of the sleeve 123.
[0061] Understandably, the self-piercing riveting device is also equipped with a first displacement sensor 140 and a second displacement sensor 150. The first displacement sensor 140 is connected to the side wall of the first stamping part 110 to detect the displacement of the first stamping part 110. Based on the length of the rivet 300, the thickness of the plate 200, and the displacement of the first stamping part 110, the position information of the rivet 300 relative to the plate 200 can be obtained to determine whether the rivet 300 has penetrated the entire plate 200. The second displacement sensor 150 is connected to the side wall of the sleeve 123 to detect the displacement of the sleeve 123. Based on the length of the rivet 300 tip protruding from the plate 200 and the displacement information of the sleeve 123, the flange condition of the rivet 300 tip can be determined, ensuring that the flange abuts against the plate 200. This ensures a tight connection between the rivet 300 and the plate 200, preventing the rivet 300 from coming out of the plate 200 and reducing the risk of loosening of the plate 200 during subsequent use. This improves the reliability of the self-piercing riveting.
[0062] In some examples, the pressure sensor 130 is located at one end of the first stamping portion 110 that abuts against the rivet 300.
[0063] Understandably, the pressure sensor 130 is located in the first stamping part 110 and is used to abut against one end of the rivet 300. That is, the pressure sensor 130 is located in the effective riveting area of the first stamping part 110, ensuring the accuracy of the detected pressure information. This allows for precise determination of whether the rivet 300 has penetrated the entire sheet metal 200, improving reliability.
[0064] like Figure 4 As shown, a control method for a self-piercing riveting device is provided according to a second aspect of the embodiments of this application, for controlling the self-piercing riveting device as described in any of the above technical solutions, comprising:
[0065] S101: Control the first stamping part 110 to stamp the rivet 300, and obtain the pressure information of the first stamping part 110. It can be understood that during the self-piercing riveting process, the first stamping part 110 can be controlled to apply pressure to the tail end of the rivet 300, so that the rivet 300 penetrates into the plate 200. During this process, the pressure sensor 130 obtains the pressure information applied by the first stamping part 110 to the rivet 300.
[0066] S102: Based on the pressure information from the first stamping part 110, the position information of the rivet 300 relative to the sheet metal 200 is determined. It is understood that the position information of the rivet 300 within the sheet metal 200 can be determined based on the pressure information applied to the rivet 300 by the first stamping part 110. It is understood that during the riveting process, as the depth of the rivet 300 into the sheet metal 200 increases, the resistance encountered by the rivet 300 increases, and the first stamping part 110 needs to apply greater pressure to the rivet 300 to ensure smooth passage through the sheet metal 200. When the pressure information changes abruptly, it is determined that the rivet 300 has penetrated the entire sheet metal 200.
[0067] S103: When the rivet 300 penetrates the plate 200, the second stamping part 120 is controlled to stamp the tip of the rivet 300 to form a flange at the tip of the rivet 300. It is understood that when it is determined that the rivet 300 has penetrated the entire plate 200, the second stamping part 120 is controlled to move towards the plate 200 to apply pressure to the tip of the rivet 300, causing the tip of the rivet 300 to form a flange. The flange abuts against the plate 200, ensuring that the rivet 300 completely penetrates the entire plate 200 while maintaining a tight connection with the plate 200, preventing the rivet 300 from coming out of the plate 200, reducing the risk of loosening of the plate 200 during subsequent use, and allowing the riveting status of the rivet 300 to be detected without destructive testing, reducing testing costs and improving the efficiency of self-piercing riveting.
[0068] In some examples, such as Figure 5 As shown, the step of determining the position information of the rivet 300 relative to the plate 200 based on the pressure information of the first stamping part 110 includes: drawing a pressure-time curve of the first stamping part 110 based on the pressure information of the first stamping part 110; determining the position information of the rivet 300 relative to the plate 200 based on the distribution of the pressure-time curve; wherein, when the pressure-time curve shows an inflection point, it is determined that the rivet 300 penetrates the plate 200.
[0069] Understandably, after obtaining the pressure information of the first stamping part 110, a pressure-time curve of the first stamping part 110 can be plotted based on the pressure information. Since the pressure of the first stamping part 110 fluctuates during the riveting process, the fluctuation range of the pressure of the first stamping part 110 can be determined according to the ±3σ principle, thereby determining the minimum pressure-time curve and the maximum pressure-time curve. As long as the pressure of the first stamping part 110 is within the fluctuation range, the stability of the riveting process can be guaranteed. When the pressure-time curve shows an inflection point, that is, when the pressure drops instantaneously, it indicates that the rivet 300 has penetrated the entire sheet metal 200. The riveting status of the rivet 300 can be detected without destructive testing, reducing inspection costs and improving the efficiency of self-piercing riveting.
